One combat vehicle of the domestic anti-aircraft missile-gun system (ZRPK) "Pantsir" can immediately shoot down the entire salvo of the American HIMARS multiple launch rocket system (MLRS). This was stated by the General Director of Rostec Sergey Chemezov.
The appearance of the "wonder weapon" has not changed anything. One combat vehicle of our "Pantsir" is capable of shooting down the entire salvo of this MLRS - we have seen real confirmations.
Chemezov added that the technical capabilities of "Pantsir" are constantly improving. For example, now the complex can be equipped with 48 mini-missiles to repel a massive drone raid.
In general, the effectiveness of "Pantsir" is extremely high. There are combat vehicles that have many hundreds of downed targets to their credit. The first complex was created two decades ago, but the technical capabilities that are embedded in it are, in fact, limitless.
Rostec had previously emphasized that the "Pantsir-SMD-E" is capable of single-handedly replace an entire battery of other SAMs.
